Newbie....needing advice :)
« on: 12 August 2009, 12:55:36 am »
Hey there...i am a BBW and want to get into escorting...was wondering if anyone has any advice for me on how to get started :) I'm not really sure if i want to sleep with them at the moment but i would look into doing it at some point...any advice would be greatly appreciated :)

Hi and welcome,
There's various advice throughout the forum on how to get started as an escort. Please feel free to use the search facility. There are also a couple of articles on the main site itself on where to advertise if you're a BBW and also how to market yourself if you're not a size 10 blonde young thing.

But, if this is something you don't think you can do, don't do it. Don't listen to people when they say it's easy money, especially those that haven't escorted,  because it's not. It takes a certain strength of mind to do (like having sex with men we wouldn't otherwise fancy) what we do and some people aren't cut out for it.

Think long and hard about it first please. But welcome anyway.

Brandy pretty much said it...her advice is gold around here along with a few other ladies I admire  ;) 

But, and this is just my experience...if you want to know all about it and are serious, you just have to put an ad/profile up and do it honey. We can tell you everything but until you experience the 'experience' theres only so much to say. My advice is photos, cell phone, and flirtatious copy. That will, repeat...WILL get you started. Everything else comes into play and at that point you will have relevant, precise questions to ask. It wasnt til I played the field that I began to prowl for more info online.

I think when people say 'easy' money, they mean 'fast' money. Its not easy by any mean (well, for me it is!) but when you add in advertising, wasters, and  trying to be perfect, well after awhile it gets hard.  I still cant believe theres so much to this job than just 'shagging'. its a business and theres alot of obstacles and things to know. It builds character cause you own yourself...you learn not to be a doormat which is something I struggled with for awhile and some days still do. You have to be great, yet rigid...at the same time which I find a challenge and I love it. Just get out there and meet guys and the questions and concerns will come naturally.

Well, you've made the first good move and requested a buddy in your area.  Also drop Penny a line at www.escortbuddys.com to see if she has anyone in your area.

It's a love-in with Joey this morning because I agree that no matter what anybody tells you, they can give you all the advice you need, there's nothing like experiencing it the first time yourself. But that's not to say you still shouldn't have a chat with somebody first, to at least get a rough idea.

I think when people say 'easy' money, they mean 'fast' money.

Spot on. That's exactly what it is imho. "Fast(quick)" and "easy" are two seperate things when it comes to this job. If (some of) the male members of Punternet are to be believed, absolutely no thought goes into what we do at all. This is a business, just one like no other. But we're self-employed, therefore we only have ourselves to depend on. This job can sometimes be emotionally and physically taxing and as I said before, you have to be of a certain strong character to succeed in it.

If you do decide to go ahead, take some more time, make use of the search facility and read the main site. Yes, there's a lot of it, but you don't have to read everything now. Start with what pertains to you now, our 10 point starter guide for instance, what to do on outcalls, what to do if you're taking incalls, parts of the site that relate to your taking those first few steps, then read the rest at your leisure.
And good luck.

A slight alternative to the love-in view :) is that if you're wondering if you can do casual sex with strangers, try it without money being involved. A book I like suggests going to a bar, and picking up an average man. Slightly easier would be to stick an ad on one of the 'casual encounters' lists, perhaps along the lines of 'Me: [short description] You: age / looks irrelevant, impress me with your text'.

You get to answer the 'can I do it' question without the implications of the p-word coming into it.

If nothing else, it will show there is a demand for BBW - if you get fewer than twenty replies, I'll be surprised.

But that's not to say you still shouldn't have a chat with somebody first, to at least get a rough idea.

I take it that one cannot cheat and be drunk while trying this technique as the 'average' or 'repulsive' guy may actually come out looking as cute as Carlson Daly in the dim lighting and intoxication LOL.

If you can't do it sober, I'd say you know what the answer to 'is this for me' is.

Have to second this. I don't think alcohol and escorting mix well. The last thing you want to do is miss a subtle warning sign, or ignore your own feelings about your work and what you're doing at the time, because you're in that 'everything's gonna be fine' second glass of wine phase! It can be important to pay attention to so many little things during a booking.

Not to mention even bigger risks that come from alcohol, but they're much more widely publicized so no point repeating them here to a bunch of ladies and men who actually have their heads screwed on. :P

Going back to the point that Joey raised about casual sex with strangers. Thought everyone had done that at one time or other! Lol.
find out exactly how and why a man hoping to escort women for a living has more chance of plaiting fog, and better earning prospects on Jobseekers Allowance.

Brandy is right if you have any doubt dont get into the industry.   Buddies are a great there are so many nutters out there and Penny is really experienced she will be able to tell you a lot and not through rose tinted specs either which is what you need.

Yeah but the whole point is actually earning from it.  If anyone cannot envisage being intimate and give a great service to anyone regardless of looks then quite rankly they are in the wrong industry.

Tell me about it. Its easier said than done. Sometimes you have to try harder to be attracted to someone than others. None of us can lie and say we havent walked away from bookings some days feeling disgusted. But there's some very sexy clients out there that make up for that, however lately there seems to be a shortage of  :P

I think I want to just go out and find a cute guy this weekend and F him just for a change of scenary, since my 2 boyfriends are laying on the curb  >:(

P.S. here is former MTV host Carson Daly... :-*
